| [ Summary ] | Malternal and fetal conditions may deteriorate rapidly in pregnancies with renal disease complications. Renal disease is one of the highest risk factors associated with preeclampsia. Pregnant women with renal disease should be instructed in regard to renal function. It was formerly considered that strict restriction of salt, fluids, and caloric intake was necessary to prevent severe preeclampsia. However, at this time, rigid salt and fluid restrictions are not recommended. |
